Thoughts on seeing demonstrations in UK and Places you can go with Zipair
This is almost similar to 2023 European Diary? But the live coverage and overview are different. tkgshn.icon*2

Watching the Protest (resistance?) (called "demonstration" in Japanese?) in Paris, I have various emotions
Overall, I think it's a good experience
So I want to write it down
"I think you should create as criticism!"
Europe is undoubtedly leading the world in religious history, architecture, philosophy, etc., but since this century it has been in conflict with American capitalism (?)
If you think that Paris is stuck in history and that modern people are only in the tourism industry, you can understand it?
If the labor system is not working well, the quality of the products that workers buy will inevitably decline, but how stupid are the guys who are on strike? Are there only stupid workers in Paris? I only think that your actions are strangling you.
I don't understand this at all blu3mo.icon
I think that there are creative things that can be done other than "strikes", but I think that it has a normal meaning as one of the actions
If the exercise of power such as strikes is not accompanied, even if you create a better system, it will not be realized
What does this mean? tkgshn.icon*2
The argument of Previous companies, interviews and appearances related to oneself.icon is that "if you have time to complain about strikes, think more about better social systems." blu3mo.icon
Previous companies, interviews and appearances related to oneself.icon
However, I think that "even if you think about a better social system, it will not be realized without the exercise of power such as strikes or violence." blu3mo.icon
So I don't understand the argument that "strikes that advocate for things that lead to a better society (such as wage increases and rights) are meaningless." blu3mo.icon
Well, why not start a business as an entrepreneur? Previous companies, interviews and appearances related to oneself.icon
I feel like I'll just be replaced by a robot even if I do that
Isn't there a better way? (Well, I think this is a negative denial without alternative because everyone has to keep thinking about it, so I really hate it.)
Expressing a sense of despair is consistently too childish, and meta-wise, it still lacks enough despair. Realize that even wishing is useless.
That's all there is to life once you realize that.
There is no value in facing denial without alternative. Ultimately, if the population decreases, even human rights cannot be maintained, and if you try to structurally move your hands before that, it is not strange that it will become that. Those who argue based on their feelings are much more contemptuous.

If skipping work is a strike, then labor will only be replaced and ultimately laid off
Free riding with negative externalities
More technical talk is necessary
I don't go to demonstrations. Instead, I organize tourism - including intellectual tourism as publishing.

morie also said, "Tomorrow, the university professor is going to a demonstration, so the class will be online."
There are too many demonstrations in Europe. It may be important for democracy, but it's quite inconvenient because it's too different from what I expected. I don't really know what's good anymore. Is it really necessary to stop living with everything being a demonstration?
> It's quite subtle whether a so-called demonstration directly leads to a change in life. When I hear that a university teacher is going to a demonstration and the class is canceled, I think, "Well, you have talent and you're standing at the podium, so there must be something else you can do. Educate and enlighten. There are other ways besides raising your voice in a crowd."
Can a demo change the world?
That's why I don't vote
I don't go to demonstrations. Instead, I organize tourism - including intellectual tourism as publishing.
> Even if you do a demonstration or become a politician, the world hasn't really changed, has it? Make something, move your hands, take a position.

This reminds me of Hannah Arendt's "Shigenori Uno"
3 classifications of human social acts by Arendt
